Hi.
I'm a happy new owner of a X5.
My only (up until now) problem is that I can't seem to sort how to install the proper drivers so that my netbook with Windows 7 32 bits, recognizes the Ideos as a Android handset.
It sees it as a CD unit!!!
I've tried to solve this with a driver that is foundable on the ideos itself and as it was stated on a older thread...but it doesn't work!
What can I do?
Are you trying to access the sdcard? In that case have you enabled mass storage mode on your phone?
Sent from my Ideos X5 using XDA App
Thats exact. That CD Drive had software (drivers) on it that you should use to install the drivers for windows 7 to recognize it.
As far as I remember, turn on USB debugging, then it will detect new hardware.. on the dialog select BROWSE FOR FILES (or something like that) and browse to the CD drive that is linked to the IDEOS... then press next, it will say installing drivers..
Then it should be fine.
No...as I stated before...i've tried to install the drivers that come in that mountable drive inside the X5. But Windows 7 says that those drivers can't be installed!!!
Don't know what to do!!!
I have exactly the same problem with Windows 7 64 bit. I wanted to root my phone but Device Manager recognized only the mass storage drives so I wasn't able to install the adb drivers. I ended up rooting U8800 with Vista which perfectly recognized the phone.

Yes. It wasn't recognized in two different Windows 7 computers but with same settings on Huawei it was properly recognized in Vista.
You could try to install the software that can be found on Huawei's website.
Unfortunately I can't post any links, so I will describe how to get there.
-On Huawei's website, hover your mouse over 'support' in the upper menu bar, then click 'Downloads'.
-In the middle, the 'Manuals' tab is selected, click 'Software'.
-Now look for 'HUAWEI Android Phones USB Driver', probably listed at top.
After installing it, my phone got recognized in Win 7's device list.
Unfortunately I can't approach the SD cards, but that might be a different problem. (I am able to see 2 extra removable storage devices in explorer, but can't open them. A clue anyone?)
Moved To Q&A
We now have a Q&A section. Please post all questions there
I had the same problem but i installed Ubuntu and it recognized the phone.
Try Hisuite.Phone will be recognized
Before connecting with phone, do these :
Unknown sources, Usb debugging, mock locations (tick them)

i don't know why but drivers for windows 7 doesn't work well with my milestone 2
if i try to connect my phone "as a memory", like a flash usb drive, windows try to install driver from windows update but fail and i can't copy files from/to my phone, like it's not connected
if i use "windows mode" (didn't remember the correct name ) it work but it is so slow to do everything
now i have cyanogenmod from endless7, perfect mod but without this "windows mode" so i can't connect my phone with my pc with windows, it's strange because RSD lite recognize my phone, so i don't know if the driver work or not
someone know the solution?
plug in your mobile, then right click on my computer > manage > device manager, there should be an MTP service that's got a yellow question mark. Right click on it, press driver update > search my computer for the driver, click on "let me choose from driver list" and there should be something like usb mass storage, click on it and click next. Can't describe it as it should be because I already did it a while ago Hope it helps, worked for me!
i love you, it work thanks
Same problem when connecting like Portal & Tools. Tip doesn't work (no usb mass storage driver). Using CyanogenMod 7.
Any suggestions?
Windows cant find a driver for the phone, how do you use this on Windows?
You can install the drivers as part of the Android SDK, or you could search this forum for drivers, or you could goto the Development section and download mskip's Galaxy Nexus 4 Toolkit and install the drivers from there.

installed the drivers and Windows sees it as an Android ADB device but it doesnt mount anything. How do I transfer files over USB?
I extracted the drivers from the Android SDK and posted it up. Check my sig for the link.
tried those too and its still not mounting anything
Windows 7 detected my phone without any drivers installed and I was able to mount the internal storage. The only thing the sdk drivers allow for are adb and fastboot interfacing, so they shouldn't be needed if all you are trying to do is mount the device.
try different usb port my pc did that at first.
I'm not sure why, but it worked for me on windows 7 and automatically updated the drivers. The weird thing is that adb recognizes the nexus 4 as a Samsung phone

Sorry, misread your post. Try restarting, try a different USB port, try a different cable. Also, make sure MTP mode is enabled on your phone (Settings > Storage > Menu > then check Media Device).

Have you found a solution yet? To transfer files from my PC to the phone, I have to make sure debugging is turned off and connect with MTP mode. But if I want to use ADB, I need to turn debugging on which loses the PC's ability to see the phone at all unless I connect in PTP mode. All a bit weird but at least it works. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers?
Phone mounts fine on 2 different computers, its something with my computer.
Its not the USB cable, tried different ports, I tried USB debugging on and off, camera mode and MTP. Device manager sees it as a Nexus 4 but says the drivers didnt install.
So my next question is why isnt Windows installing the drivers properly?
i have got two nexus 4
and with one of them i am not able to connect it to my main computer (with a second computer it works).
With the other nexus 4 i have no problems on any computer...
os is alway win 7.
just linking and sharing a similar thread [Q]Computer won't recognize phone? which covers same/similar issue and resolution.
I recieved my N4 yesterday.
When I try to connect it to my notebook (running Windows 7 Professional), the installation of the MTP driver fails. The error message says something like "driver could not be found". ADB however works without problems. (I allready debugged some apps on the phone.)
I tried installing the drivers from the toolkit, but it didn't work.
On my brothers netbook the MTP drivers were installed successfully. But I can't get it working on my notebook.
Can anyone help me?

Thanks for your help. I allready tried an other usb port. It did'nt work.
I wanted to avoid it but I reinstalled windows. Now it works. Thanks again.
Hmm, messed with this problem for ages yesterday, mtp installed fine in normal mode but refused when in 'usb debugging' mode
simple fix, find your wpdmtp.inf file in windows/inf
edit it like shown, look for the [Generic.NTx86] and [Generic.NTamd64] entries near the top of the file........
[Generic.NTx86]
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\MS_COMP_MTP
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE2&MI_00
[Generic.NTamd64]
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\MS_COMP_MTP
%GenericMTP.DeviceDesc%=MTP, USB\VID_18D1&PID_4EE2&MI_00
...then update the driver in device manager, use automatic search
just make sure the 'VID_18D1&PID_4EE2&MI_00' matches your device id, check in device manager.. but i'm guessing all nexus 4 are the same.. usb debugging mode
I did a clean install of windows and that solved the issue for me. Thanksfor your help anyway.
I usually see what drivers do install, like adb or whatever, and then remove/uninstall them AND delete them
Then installed this pack
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1998650
then connect to a different USB port and try again with the new drivers
Also, some USB hubs can be under-powered and cause problems.

It doesn't ask. I plug in the phone, and Windows says it can't install the MTP driver.
If I go into Device Manager and find the phone (with the yellow triangle and !) and select Update Driver Software, then navigate to the i386 folder from the Universal Naked Driver (on an i5 system), it tells me that "The best driver for your device is already installed" or something similar.
Of course, if I uninstall the device from device manager (and presumably the bad MTP driver as well), it disappears, so I have nothing to point to to install the drivers.
Earlier today I reinstalled the drivers for my N4 on my work PC (Vista Business) and I had to reboot before it recognised the N4 as an MTP Device - prior to that it only saw it as an 'MTP Device'. Now it sees at 'Nexus 4'
I have a similar problem I have a kindle fire
I have install the ADB driver but am having extreme difficulties getting the MTP drivers to work
I have tried everything (every solution on Google)
and nothing works
I've tried the "Media Transfer Protocol Porting Kit"
I tried to get Microsoft help they gave me the run around and confused me even more
here is the conversation
Microsoft: "Thank you for that information
Nathaniel I was checking your product key and it is blocked that is why you can not connect these devices to your computer, you may be a victim of counterfeit software so in this case since it is an OEM computer which means that the manufacture of the computer installed Windows 7 on your computer I recommend you to contact the manufacture of your computer to see if they have an option in order to resolve this issue you are having."
me: when i contact them what do I ask for?
Microsoft: You need to ask for a new product key
me: I am confused what does this mean? that the manufacturer put windows 7 OS on here illegally? but all PC's come with windows OS so every PC in the world is suspect to counterfeiting
them: No, this could be because someone still some information of your computer and use the product key to try to activate Windows until the product key got blocked
No, the name is not involved in this case it is jut the product key
what do I do?
is there an alternative to MTP drivers?
Solved
Hi, i had the same problem described in previous posts and I managed to solve thanks to what is written by meangreenie.
In practice, in the windows\inf of my Windows 7 the file wpdmtp.inf was no longer present but there is only the "compiled" version (wpdmtp.pnf).
I retrieved the file from an earlier version founded in he folder Winsys and so the LG driver are installed without further problems.

You might be using the wrong driver (Android ADB) instead of the MTP driver. This happened to me the other day!
If you're in Debug Mode, you've already done the first step I was going to suggest.
Here's the second step that worked for me: Open Device Manager -> Click Android Device (top of my list) which exposes "Android Composite ADB Interface" -> Right click that device -> Update Driver Software -> Browse My computer for driver software -> Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer -> then choose "MTP USB Device" -> Next
Mine installed the MTP driver and then the N4 opened normally.

That works for me with USB Debug ticked and in MTP Mode but not in PTP Mode (on CM10.2-nightly-20130817). I absolutely can't see my pics in no way... (I suppose this is a bug from Google to be fixed in further updates). ADB and FB are correctly working as tested with NexusRootToolkit 1.7.1 Drivers Test.
May it help to delete original DCIM folder and start from a new one??
edit: Shame on me... I forgot that I've formatted my SDcard, so I've no picture in DCIM folder.... Sorry! So I can say that McDougal trick totally worked for me!
try to check the device manager to check the missing drivers with ! mark
Maybe I'm not completely getting the problem, but just doing this worked fine for me:

Enable USB debbuging in your phone. Go to Settings -> about phone -> tap about 10 times on build number item until USB debbuging is unlocked.
Also, on your computer go to the device manager, look for your phone, if you find it, right click on it, then update Driver Software, browse computer, Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer, USB composite device
That should do it.

Tried this technique and it still won't work.
Here's what I'm doing
- Uninstall all current drivers & HTC Sync

Phone when on normally connects to adb just fine,
but when I put it into the bootloader it takes around 15 seconds to detect it and then says it's unrecognised and gives the error below:

A request for the USB BOS descriptor failed.
Any help would be appreciated. For now, I'm running a copy of W7 on an old 2.5" drive... not ideal.
Tried this technique and it still won't work.
@petedavison93 and the owner of this thread, did you guys find a fix to pete's issue as I'm having the same issue as Pete, please help!
Had the same issue and installed different drivers several times without luck.
It was fixed for me by simply plugging in the phone into an USB port at the motherboard. The front USB and additional USB3 ports at the PC were not working, when the device is booted to the bootloader. They are working with adb only, when the phone is running normal.
I am running Win8x64.

Anyone happen to know where I can find some windows 7 32bit drivers. Windows 8 32bit isn't a fan of 64bit software.
It isn't a problem with the HTC drivers. It's the usb drivers from Ms for Intel 3.0 bus. I found a thread that I'm searching again for that give the instructions on replacing the signed ms driver with an unsigned win 7 64bit host controller driver. It's two files and you need to first allow unsigned drivers in windows security. Needless to say it's fine now on my 3 ports.

Guys, I know i am repeating again the question but despite reading 15-20 posts and uncountable articles, I am still not able to get my nexus 7 working with the Windows XP SP3.
1) To start with, I downloaded the google drivers from ASUS and the MTP Porting Kit from microsoft.When i plug in the device with USB Debugging on, Windows shows 3 new devices- NEXUS 7 & Android ADB Interface.. and ofcourse Windows XP can not find the drivers for any. So i open the device manager and it shows Nexus 7 under unidentified devices. I install the drivers for ADB interface (the ones i downloaded from Asus) and the device becomes ready to use. But there is no option to browse the device from my computer or portable devices. Then i switch the debugging on, and now there is a new device- MTP under unidentified devices. Then i install the MTP Porting Kit, but the MTP device still shows a problem with the driver.
2) The second part of the problem is that all this did not work and even my WMP11 does not recognise the Nexus 7.
The device is just connected and charging!!! What am i doing wrong here???

I had a lot of problems myself getting Windows XP to work with my Nexus 7 as well... eventually I discovered that installing the latest version of Windows Media Player fixed the problem.
I wrote up a post on this issue on another forum (Sorry, XDA - this was before I discovered you guys), back in December of last year.
Anyway, here is my original post...
http://www.nexus7nexus10.com/forum/nexus-7-help/2600-cannot-connect-pc-2.html#post36608
(Actually, this whole thread is worth reading.)
The only nuisance factor is having to remember to re-enable USB debugging (Titanium Backup needs USB debugging enabled, and complains if itsn't) AFTER I've run some MTP Windows XP related file backups (USB debugging needs to be disabled, or MTP won't work)...
....or at least that is my experience.
Hope this is of some use.

Hello guys,
I have the same issue on windows XP with Nexus 7. I tried everything what was suggested and nothing is working.
I have Windows XP SP3 with WMP11 and MTP porting kit installed as well. the device is recognized and driver is instaled fine. But it's not visible on "my computer" in MTP mode. I tried to turn on usb debugging and still device is invisible in windows explorer, the same is when usb debugging is turoned off.
When device is in PTP mode it appears in "my computer" and i'm able to browse it and see all pictures and photos.
How can i browse my device in MTP mode and copy files there? Please reply if anybody knows what to do to fix this issue.
Thank you.

Recently got a 2012 Nexus 7 from a retailer selling this model with updated Android at very attractive price, and initially able to connect to computer so promptly rooted the device with the Nexus Root Toolkit from Wugfresh Development (in this forum), afterwards had same problems with not being able to read / transfer files.
Tried every fix I could find in other threads, and although device manager saying that connected as 'ADB Device' with debugging on, or 'Google Nexus 7 ADB Device' with MTP on and debugging off, still stuck with no access.
Looking closer at the MTP configuration ('Google Nexus 7 ADB Device') under device manager noticed that details listed manufacturer as 'ClockWorkMod' , and eventually that this originated within a Windows\Inf file titled 'oem60'.
I cut and pasted the 'oem60' file to another directory (to keep it safe just in case this upset something else) then on reconnecting the Nexus 7 as MPT with debugging off, device manager found and installed the correct driver at last. Now able to see and transfer files to / from it.
Presumably could alter the relevant lines in the 'oem60' file, which aren't hard to find, and put it back to original directory, but my other devices also working fine so not done so as yet.

Tried every fix I could find in other threads, and although device manager saying that connected as 'ADB Device' with debugging on, or 'Google Nexus 7 ADB Device' with MTP on and debugging off, still stuck with no access.
Looking closer at the MTP configuration ('Google Nexus 7 ADB Device') under device manager noticed that details listed manufacturer as 'ClockWorkMod' , and eventually that this originated within a Windows\Inf file titled 'oem60'.
I cut and pasted the 'oem60' file to another directory (to keep it safe just in case this upset something else) then on reconnecting the Nexus 7 as MPT with debugging off, device manager found and installed the correct driver at last. Now able to see and transfer files to / from it.
Presumably could alter the relevant lines in the 'oem60' file, which aren't hard to find, and put it back to original directory, but my other devices also working fine so not done so as yet.

The above workaround was spot on, thanks
